My Name is Earl Target Bonus Disc Question

I picked up My Name Is Earl at lunch today at Target. Due to all of Targets mistakes as of late with their bonus discs I was wondering before I opened mine if anyone else had purchased it and already opened it? Was a bonus disc inside? Mine (and all of the ones on the shelf) had stickers on the front that say "Target Exclusive limited edition bonus disc while supplies last". The sticker does NOT say inside the box. If there is one none of them had a bonus disc attached outside of the box which leads me to believe there is not one inside. Why would it be inside? The target employees were unable to assist me and were pretty clueless. If this is another mistake by Target I want to return it before I open it and pick it up at bestbuy for the flannel shirt set instead. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

If there was a sticker on the outside, the bonus disc is inside. I did open mine and it's in there.

Thanks guys.

Are the outtakes on the bonus disc any different from the ones in the box set?

I opened mine in the car, in the parking lot. It was inside.

Well thanks to the people braver then me I busted mine open and yes the bonus disc was there! I popped it in just to scan through it and see what was there. In a nutshell :
There was no menu it just plays.
1st segment is I'm Greg Garcia, the producer and he is driving and talking about the show then it goes into a segment called Table Read which is all the cast in a room reading through the script and joking it looks like. They jump back and forth between showing them running through the script and then showing the actual scenes from the episodes they just read. This all runs about 7 minutes.
Next segment is called the Great Race and it shows them setting up a drag race and filming it. There is no commentary during this segment. It runs 4 minutes.
Last segment is called Karma strikes again and it 21 minutes of bloopers. I assume this is different then the blooper segment on the disc as that has a different name. There are some Jamie Pressley bloopers

Hope this helps someone!

Damn. That bonus disc sounds far better than the stupid flannel shirt cover and the cd with three songs on it.

In the Bargain thread, a few people reported finding the Target Bonus Disc with their Best Buy "Good Karma" set rather than the CD. Anyone else have that luck?

I bought the set at work today (Transworld) and of course we didnt have any sort of bonus... but there is a $10 mail in rebate! I'll take the ten bones over a cd sampler or flannel shirt.

I didn't even know about this until I went to Targét yesterday to pick up a water filter. I was planning on picking mine up at Fry's ($29.99?) but I saw the bonus disc AND a $5 gift card (which essentially made it $29.99) and I was sold. Damn $7 store trips turning into $45 store trips.
